ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS - cont'd
DOUBLE INSULATED []
The power tool is double insulated to providea double
thickness of insulationbetween you and tool'selectricel
system. All exposed metal parts are isolated from the
internalmetat motor componentswith protecting insulation.
Replacement parts - When servicinguse only identical
replacement parts.
Polarized plugs - This saw has a plugthat lookslike the
one shown below:
-i;222
To reduca the risk of electrical shock, this saw has a
polarized plug (one blade iswider than the other). This
plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug
does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still
does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install the
proper outlet. Do not change the plug in any way.
[AWARN,NG]
Double insulationdoes nottake the place of normal safety
precautions when operating this tool.
To avoid electrocution:
1. Use only identical replacement parts when servicinga
toolwith double insulation.Servicing should be performed
by a qualified technician.
2. Do not use power tools inwet or damp locationsor
expose them to rain or snow.
MOTOR SAFETY PROTECTION
IMPORTANT:
To avoid motor damage, the motor shouldbe blownout or
vacuumed frequently to keep sawdust from interfering with
the motor ventilation.
1.CONNECT this saw to a 120V, 15 amp. circuitwitha 15
amp. time delay fuse or circuit breaker. Using the wrong
size fuse can damage the motor.
2. If the motor won't start, release the trigger switch
immediately.UNPLUG THE SAW. Check the saw blade
to make sure it turns freely. If the blade is free, try to
start the sew again. Ifthe motor still does not start, refer
to the "TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE"
3. If the tool suddenlystalls whilecutting wood, release the
trigger switch, unplugthe tool, and free the blade from
the wood. The saw may now be started and the cut
finished.
4.FUSES may "blow" or circuit breakers may tdp
frequently if:
a. MOTOR is overloaded - overloading can occur if
you feed too rapidly or make too many start/stops
in a short time.
b. LINE VOLTAGE is morethan 10% above or below
the nameplate voltage rating. For heavy loads, the
voltage at motor terminals mustequal the voltage
specified on the nameplate.
c. IMPROPER or dull saw blades are used.
5. Most motor troublesmay be traced to loose or incorrect
connections, overload, lowvoltage or inadequate power
supplywiring.Always check the connections,the load
and supplycircuitif the motor doesn't runwell. Check
minimum gauge for the lengthof cord you are usingon
the chart below.
/
GUIDELINES FOR EXTENSION CORDS
Use a proper extension cord. Make sure yourextension
cord is in good condition.When using an extension cord,
be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your
productwill draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in
linevoltage, resulting in lossof power and cause
overheating. The table below shows the correct sizeto use
depending on cord length and nameplate ampere rating. If
in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The smaller the
gauge number,the heavier the cord.
Be sure your extension cord is properly wired and in
good condition.Always replace a damaged extension cord
or have it repaired by a qualified person before usingit.
Protect your extension cords from sharp objects, excessive
heat and damp or wet areas.
Use a separate electrical circuit for your tools. This
circuit must not be less than # 12 wire and should be
protected with a 15 Amp time delay fuse. Before
connecting the tool to the power line,make sure the switch
is in the OFF positionand the electric current israted the
same as the current stamped on the motor nameplate,
runningat a lower voltagewilldamage the motor.
